As long as she took a fancy to a certain piece of clothing, she no longer had to resist her urges and could simply shop as she pleased. Not long after Gao Feng unilaterally broke up with her, Ma Yuanyuan immediately felt the inconveniences of breaking up with Gao Feng.

She no longer enjoyed shopping because she knew that she could only eye those pretty clothes, but Gao Feng would not be around to foot her bill. No matter how pretty the clothes were, or how much she liked them, all she could do was take a few more looks at them before someone else bought them.

In addition, when she was dating Gao Feng in the past, Gao Feng often treated her and her friends to meals.

Without Gao Feng as her boyfriend, Ma Yuanyuan did not dare to be such a spendthrift. Before she had gotten together with Gao Feng, she was no different from other students and ate in the school canteen like any other student did.

Thinking about how her friends and classmates whom Gao Feng had treated in the past had come to ask her when Gao Feng was treating them to another feast, Ma Yuanyuan felt nauseated.

Did all these so-called friends and classmates really take her to be a pig’s head and a sacrificial lamb? It was only normal for people to take turns footing the bill. Why was she always the one who had to treat them to meals? They were clearly taking advantage of her.

At that time, she was spending Gao Feng’s money. Since this made her proud, she did not take the matter to heart either. She believed that Gao Feng knew very well whether he was able to fork out this sum of money and would never make her life difficult just because of this sum of money.

Now that she no longer had her boyfriend footing the bill for her, Ma Yuanyuan was no fool either. There was no way she was going to treat these people to a feast in a restaurant. She was not even willing to treat them to a meal in their school canteen. “Treat you guys to a meal? Talking about that, I treated you to quite a few meals when I was still with Gao Feng. It’s part of our Chinese culture to reciprocate someone else’s kindness. I spent quite a lot of money treating you guys to so many meals. How’s that? Isn’t it time for you guys to treat me someday?”

“You can’t put it that way. If you really want to talk about it, you weren’t the one treating us. Gao Feng was the one who paid.” What? She was not going to treat them, and she was even asking them to treat her? Was Ma Yuanyuan crazy?

“Hehehe…” Ma Yuanyuan sneered. “I really wonder when you guys were on such good terms with Gao Feng that Gao Feng was willing to treat you guys to meals. But why hasn’t he asked you guys out recently? Think about why Gao Feng was willing to let you guys take advantage of him. I’m sure you guys are clear about on whose account Gao Feng was willing to treat you. I haven’t said anything so that we can both save our faces. But since you guys are so thick-skinned, I might as well be straightforward with my words. It’s true that Gao Feng was the one who treated you guys, so shouldn’t you guys pay back the favor and treat Gao Feng to a meal? There’s no need to call me along. You guys can just treat Gao Feng alone.”

Now that Ma Yuanyuan said that, the rest of them were truly rendered speechless.

They were used to taking advantage of others. It felt good to be able to enjoy a delectable feast outside of school. Eating the food in the school canteen every day was quite miserable indeed. They had thought that Ma Yuanyuan would suffer in order to maintain her pride and would spend her own money to treat them to a meal.

They had never imagined that Ma Yuanyuan would be so amazing, refusing to treat them to a meal for the sake of her pride. Instead, she had even embarrassed them.

They were the ones who had come up with such a scheming idea, after all, so they were the ones who would be embarrassed if a word were to get out. It might not matter for the girls, but there were a few boys amongst them. After being lectured by Ma Yuanyuan, those who wanted to maintain their pride dared not argue with Ma Yuanyuan and could only take their leave.

But there was one person who was persistent and refused to give up. What he said revealed that he was smarter than the others around. “Yuanyuan, you’re so pretty. Others may not know about how well Gao Feng treated you in the past, but we know all too well. He liked you so much. How could he break up with you just like that? Do you mean he really has no more feelings for you? Don’t worry, Yuanyuan. We’re all friends. We’ll definitely support you all the way. If you need any help, you’re welcome to find me for help. I’ll try to help you to the best of my abilities.”

Of course, the keyword was ‘try’.

Ma Yuanyuan had no idea whether he was being genuine or not. Neither did she want to find out. The entire school had already found out about Gao Feng’s attitude toward her. Wouldn’t they take her for a fool if she were to try to get Gao Feng back? Especially those hussies who were clear that she was dating Gao Feng. They had immediately tried to get involved the minute she had gotten into a fight with Gao Feng.

Her slightest actions were sure to spread like wildfire among them, and whatever news they spread was sure to be detrimental to her.

Even though it was true that she did not want to break up with Gao Feng and still wanted to salvage their relationship, she could not handle the matter in this manner. She had to find an appropriate solution that would allow her to maintain her dignity while successfully reconciling with Gao Feng.

The more so this happened, the more so she could not act out of anxiety. If she got anxious, she might come up with a bad solution and make a misstep. She was not going to allow herself to fall into such a miserable and embarrassing state.

As Gao Feng’s parents, Gao Yan and Fang Fang quickly learned of their son’s breakup. Initially, Fang Fang was upset that her son was in an early relationship. But now that her son had broken up with his girlfriend, Fang Fang could not help but worry. “Son, if you’re feeling unwell or upset, do you want to have a chat with Mom? What Mom’s trying to say is that there’s more than one tree in the forest. You should just focus on your studies for now. Once you enter university, you’ll realize just how beautiful and amazing this world is and that your life can be filled with all sorts of people whom you’ve never met before in your life.”

In short, once he interacted with more people, he would definitely meet a girl who was leagues above his ex-girlfriend. There was no need for her son to be so downcast over his first failed relationship. It made her heart ache seeing her son in this state.

“Thanks for your concern, Mom.” He had almost said ‘nonsense’ before changing it to ‘concern’. He was afraid that his dad would give him a tight slap if he were to say that his mom was spouting nonsense. “But I was the one who initiated this breakup. I wasn’t dumped. What’s there to be upset about? Haven’t you always disagreed to me being in an early relationship? Now that I’ve really broken up, shouldn’t you be the most relieved?”

He had thought that his mom would be so happy that she would even light firecrackers to celebrate upon learning of this piece of news.
